Re: TextSpanner Line Padding

Hi Jonathan, One more question: I'm also trying to use an "a tempo" at the end (right) of the spanner. If I use a hard space there, it won't align properly with the note it is attached to. Any advice on that would be appreciated. Can you use a hard space and then compensate by increasing the

Re: TextSpanner Line Padding

Thanks, that works perfectly. One more question: I'm also trying to use an "a tempo" at the end (right) of the spanner. If I use a hard space there, it won't align properly with the note it is attached to. Any advice on that would be appreciated. Thanks, Jonathan --- On Thu, 8/6/09, David

Using dynamics in lyrics

Hi, I'm doing an arrangement of a song, where the different stanzas in different parts have different dynamics. I know I can mark an entire stanza as forte, piano etc., using the trick int he snippets repository, but how do I do it in the middle of a verse? I've tried adding New_dynamic

Re: TextSpanner Line Padding

You could simply use a hard space, i.e. "rit. " (with a space after the period and before the closing quote). David Jonathan Wilkes wrote: Hello, If I create a "rit.---" as a TextSpanner, how can I start the line a bit to the right so that there's a little room between the word "rit." an

Mark Thanks. Your suggestion fixes the problem when applied to my small snippet, but when I make the same change in the actual score, the dots on dotted notes get placed in the center of the noteheads. Nick > -Original Message- > From: Mark Polesky [mailto:markpole...@yahoo.com] > Sent:

conditionally eliminating lyric extender

Hello all, I want to [automagically] conditionally eliminate lyric extenders when (1) the end of the syllable which has the extender is after [i.e., to the right of] the melisma's last note; and, (2) the distance to the following syllable is less than the minimum extender length [plus

TextSpanner Line Padding

Hello, If I create a "rit.---" as a TextSpanner, how can I start the line a bit to the right so that there's a little room between the word "rit." and the dotted line? I went through the internals reference and tried every property I though would be relevant, but I can't figure it out. T

Re:Strange behaviour of dotted notes

On 30th July, Nick Payne had a problem with getting dots to move with their notes. Today, I had a similar problem which is shown in the minimal example .ly file attached.. The first example shows the situation I wanted to modify. The second example uses \once \override NoteColumn 'force-hshift wh

Dot getting divorced on dotted note

I'm setting a piece in three voices (guitar arrangement of Schubert's song Ständchen). The problem is that when the top voice has a dotted chord that results in the notes being offset left/right of the stem, this results in the dot on the note in the bass voice getting separated from the note.
